Update 1.5 for XRAID

[Justin Goudreau\]

Just an FYI the latest firmware upgrade for XRAID solved all my capture problems in Tiger. It enables a write cache flush that has made all 3 of my edit stations all capture flawlessly after beating myself over the head for 3 weeks.

– Allows Write cache flushing to be disabled to prevent throughput drops when used in realtime applications (such as video capture).

Interesting Floh,

since you’re using fibrejet with the Apple Xraid i might ask you a question:
I’m playing with an Xserve RAid with 14 drives,the 7 drives from both controllers have been raided level 5, if i raid both channel with Apple disk utility to great on big volume raid 50 then i cannot partition the Volume so i can set up Partitions for my Fibrejet San….

I would like to use all the drive to aggregate the bandwith…
Is there a software to able me to do this or is it a lost cause,
how did you set up your fibrejet san with your apple xserve raid ??

Cheers
